ElicBxn @RasmaSandra my third grade teacher was also good. In fact, because in fourth grade I got my brother's teacher, and my brother was quite the pill, I had to ask my third grade teacher to talk to her. Their classrooms were right next to each other.

ElicBxn That's too bad. I had some good teachers, I had some bad ones, but I think on the whole, the good ones out number the bad. However, Dr. Hahn was exceptional.

ElicBxn I was always a bit ahead reading and keeping up with arithmetic. I liked the geography a lot. Back then they would often do geography one year and history the next.

ElicBxn I had a few of those, but only really bad a couple of times. Like my 4th grade teacher had my brother the year before. And he is almost a polar opposite of me. I finally went to my 3rd grade teacher, who's classroom was right next door, and asked if she...

ElicBxn I'm glad you liked it. Dr. Hahn was a tough teacher, his tests were hard but he told us at the beginning he didn't grade on a curve, if everyone in his class got an A, then everyone would get an A. Grading on a curve, the person who got a "90" on the test...

ElicBxn Dr. Hahn wasn't the only teacher who affected me, but I like to believe he was the one who did it the most.

ElicBxn I just get so tired of the phone ringing and ringing. I could block that number but they'd just spoof a different one. Heck, I got a call from a guy who claimed I had called him. I had to explain, to this YOUNG man about spoofing numbers.

ElicBxn @kaylachan I get these "Hello" And then there is this static sounds and generally a male voice asking "Oh, there seems to be some noise on the line, can you hear me?" The answer is always "No." They want people to say 'Yes' and then they can use it for...

ElicBxn That is a computer. You try to talk to them and all they want is to send you on to a human conman. I got one of the real people who used to call and I informed him that I did not owe back taxes and if he thought so he'd have to talk to my CPA... my brother.

ElicBxn Lordy, the year I turned 65, those Medicare scam calls started. On January 2nd! My birthday wasn't until the end of November. We finally changed the phone number I had since I moved in back in 1984 to put a stop to them. After all, I wasn't the...

ElicBxn I admit that I'm not real good at looking for discussions to respond to. Yes I do post discussion myself, but I've been kind of in the 'short attention span theater' lately. Oh, and since the 3rd it can be hard to respond to discussions with a sprained...
